Schofield

Designed by Major George Schofield to be operated with one hand while on horseback, a break-open pistol was ideal for mounted soldiers in the U.S. Cavalry. Shooters could easily eject all six spent cartridges and reload while on horseback. The top break pistol also proved useful to the likes of Jesse James and Wild Bill Hickok. The Schofield barrel latch opens by pulling it back and has a rear sight notch incorporated into it. Requires an FFL dealer to ship.

Customer Reviews

You requested feedback on the Schofield .44-40 I purchased. Finally was able to go the 72 miles to Bend to pick it up, as the snow largely melted. I like it very much. Real craftsmanship, very well fitted and finished. (Posted on 3/23/2018)

Bought my Nickle polished 3.5" Pearl handled 45 Long Colt at the end of 2017. Sure it was a little expensive for a single shot pistol, but look at the finish and quality of these revolvers. I'm thinking about getting another one of these beauties in the "Blued" cased finish. Just awesome. (Posted on 1/27/2018)

FYI, if you're a hankering to be like Jesse James or Charlie Prince...Jesse James used the 7" barrel model in 45 S&W. Ben Foster, as Charlie Prince, used the Cimarron Schofield Model 3 with 7" bbl. in 3:10 to Yuma.

Jesse James' Schofield is in the NRA National Sporting Arms Museum. See: http://www.outdoorhub.com/stories/2015/04/17/4-revolvers-used-famous-lawmen-outlaws-old-west/
